Current Behaviour?

A bug happened!when I compile TensorFlow 2.12.0  to produce Windows C++ API files. I have tried severl times. The same erro happended. I hope you can help me,thank you

Standalone code to reproduce the issue

I used Windows 10 operating system, Visual Studio 2019 C++, Bazel 5.3.0, and TensorFlow 2.12.0 to compile Windows C++ API files. My Bazel build command is: "G:\Bazel5\Bazel --output_user_root=g:\tfoutPut4 build --config=opt --define=no_tensorflow_py_deps=true --jobs=8 --subcommands //tensorflow:tensorflow_cc.dll //tensorflow:install_headers > log.txt 2> err.txt". The compilation was successful, but the linking failed with the error message: "ERROR: G:/tensorflow/tensorflow/BUILD:1219:21: Linking tensorflow/tensorflow_cc.dll failed: (Exit 1120): link.exe failed: error executing command".

Relevant log output

ERROR: G:/tensorflow/tensorflow/BUILD:1219:21: Linking tensorflow/tensorflow_cc.dll failed: (Exit 1120): link.exe failed: error executing command

Hi, @yisir323, sorry for the delayed response. Could you please run the above command again on the latest commit and let us know the issue you are facing?

[ddrous]

Hi all, any chance there's been some progress on this issue ?

[ajithrp123]

please check this issue #61226
Seems similar to this one.
Seems tensorflow_cc target not supported in windows in some tensorflow versions
